Loopia API program in Python

Last Sunday I decided to start learning Python in order to create a program for Loopia’s API.

I started off with zero Python experience and decided to use Codecademy to learn the basics. That’s when I realized that Python is incredibly easy to learn, basically looks like English and is very fun to use! It took a bit of trial and error (as always, I suppose) but I eventually ended up with a fully working program!

It is, like most of my programs, invoked from the command line. At the moment it only works with *nix systems (Actually, it MIGHT work on Windows too if you specify a username and password on the command line. I haven’t tried yet.)

In honor of Loopia releasing their test environment, I have decided to release my work as well.

Beware, however, as it is not “complete” yet, and might have a bug or two in it. I have done a lot of debugging, so hopefully it shouldn’t be too much of a hassle as long as you don’t try to break it.
